Premium PSN Plan to cost...

[//RUN.exe]

under 70 dollars a year, with a free game per month

thoughts, PS3 users? I never really use PSN much but since I think premium is just improved, all of the features we get now will stay free.

Can't wait to hear more.

I don't know if I'd really want to pay because I don't buy many downloadable games. But I like the idea and how they'd keep currently free features free. =D

Competition. Nice. Maybe Xbox Live will get some cool *censored.2.0* now.

I'm glad they're still keeping the free option and not turning into Micro$oft. I probably won't be getting this. I'm happy with the free version.

What kind of game? I'm assuming PSN Downloadbles?

they didn't say, just "a small selection of titles".

and yeah, I heard from a somewhat unreliable source that PSN is getting cross-game chat for free, apparently? dunno how accurate that is but p cool.

This is why I like PSN so much over XBL. There's more options. Sure, you have to pay to get the extra extra shiny stuff, but if you want the basic online stuff, you don't have to pay.

I don't want to start a console war, but you don't have to pay for shiny stuff on XBL if you don't want to either. You get silver membership by default, if you don't pay.

silver membership is a joke. you can't even *censored.3.0*ing play online with other people with it.

You can on EA servers, which encompasses half of the games.

i can't even reply to this it's such a stupid defense.

I'm stupid

It's per year, not per month.

ah, the "per month" only applied to the free game, but edited for clarity! thanks!

Yeah, I realized that right before you posted and edited my post.

Sounds like a pretty good deal though, considering you'll get the game per month plus some other extras.

I'm happy sticking to the free online service, I don't do voice chat or anything anyway so the premium features would be pointless to me.

 

[Lewis]

I'm up for that.

Are you serious? First of all, I'm fairly certain that's not even true, but even if it was, EA's games do not encompass half of all titles released, but even if they did, they certainly don't include more than a handful of games that are actually worth playing, but even if they did, *censored.3.0* EA.

I was gonna make another assertion about XBL vs. PSN, but it would've caused a flame war. I dropped it and substituted *censored.2.0*ty reasoning. Yay.

I wouldn't mind downloading fat princess, flower etc. for free.

I'll save judgement for E3.
